A singular and genre-defying artist across realms
Anoushka Shankar brings to Houston a new quintet of musicians, with whom she has carved out a new, multifaceted and dynamic sound as they perform music from her two newly-released mini-albums, Chapter I: Forever, For Now and Chapter II: How Dark It Is Before Dawn, alongside thoroughly shaken-up, reinterpreted gems from her previous releases including the GRAMMY-nominated live album Between Us…
Premiered for the first time in India in December 2022, this quintet has been hailed as one of the best ensembles to have toured with Anoushka across her 28-year global performing career. The energy and camaraderie on stage is unmatched as Shankar leads the way in pioneering a new sound through inventive arrangements, sensitive virtuosity and a neoclassical approach to the music tradition to which she belongs.
“Her sitar’s resonant twangs weaved emotions, and what followed was a spellbinding concert that painted the night with sonic magic.” – The Times of India
